Had a late start today. After helping a friend move all day yesterday, a little soar. Left the house around 1100 for Galena. Hit road construction on Index-Galena RD. Right before the construction, saw a sign that said "Road ends in 5miles". So I stopped at the very cute flagger girl and ask her. She said that she didn't know how far you could go. Well I found out the reason for the road closure. Here are just a bunch of pics of that.

Rode across the first part then walked a ways down to see if it was worth continueing. Couldn't see the end of the water so turned around.

Was very disappointed about the outcome of the ride. On the way back spotted a side road that since I had nothing to do, decided to take. Thought maybe I could get around the washout that way.
Come to a Y just a few hundred feet in. I do NOT suggest taking the high road. Kicked my ASS.

A little damage.

I think this is where I finally had enough and turned around. With being soar and just plum worn out by the road, finally turned around. Like I said, it just kicked my ass. Way easier going down.

Was hoping you would pick and post for me. Got a bruised thumb, semi-sprained wrist, missing front turn signal, blah, blah.....but ready to go. It's gotta be something better then exit 38 thou. (Dude, i jumped into the pool when I got home, and both of my legs cramped up sooooooo bad.)
Need to work the chain magic tomorrow morning.

I thought the road would be perfect for you and your 4X4. Would love to know how far the road goes if you ever find out.
